Ford charging adapter success!

[nerdondo]

Recently got the Tesla to ford charging adapter and used it on a trip. Worked well, started at 35 and was at 80 percent in the amount of time indicated by the ford app(30 min). Charged anywhere from about 120-170kw, drop off happened at 60 percent and again as I was disconnecting at 80. Charging was fairly painless as the payment stuff is saved in the ford app.

What does your Ford to Tesla adapter look like? What kind is it?

So have we. I've found no evidence in a change in corporate policy on this. Some Cracker Barrel restaurants allow it and some don't.

There are two different Tesla adapters you might want. First, an adapter for charging at a Tesla Supercharger. If your Lightning didn't come with one (check window sticker), you can either buy one from Ford for $200 plus tax, get the Lectron Vortex adapter, or the A2Z Typhoon Pro adapter.

If you also want to charge at a Tesla Destination charger, like at a hotel or private home, you'll want that adapter (different adapter). They are not interchangeable. The Lectron 80amp adapter or the A2Z 80amp Stellar adapter would both work great.

It’s the ford one. Waited many months to get one.

I have been to three Tesla SuperChargers that had pull through parking (out of the eight I have used so far). One was specifically labeled for pull through trailer charging (Barstow, Calif.).

Which was apparently bad info from one store manager - like relying on a single Ford dealer telling you how Lightnings can't do x, y, or z.
